Laser Tech TruPulse
TruVector Compass Technology
to know its precise orientation in 3D space. The TruPulse 360i models have 3 highly
sensitive magnetic sensors on board (one for each axis, X, Y, and Z).
To begin the routine, you should be holding the TruPulse facing towards Magnetic North. Always
perform outside and away from magnetic interference. The user compass calibration allows the unit
to discover its own magnetic fields and to mathematically correct for them. See below about magnetic
interference.
The compass is susceptible to magnetic interference and should be kept away from all ferro-magnetic
materials and strong magnetic fields when performing the compass calibration. Do not perform the
calibration inside a building, or in or near vehicles. The user calibration for the compass merely
compensates for the magnetic changes of the unit itself.
Procedure
1. Short Press Menu button to enter Settings menu.
2. Press Menu button to scroll to the User Calibration option.
3. Press the Select Button to enter the User Calibration options.
4. Press Navigation Buttons to "Yes 360i Calbrt" display. Press the Select button.
5. At each step, wait approximately 1 second before pressing the FIRE button.
a. Then wait another second before moving to the next position. It is important that the
unit is held steady when the button is pressed.
Calibration Sequence
1. Face North (+/- 10 degrees), hold in Position 1 (C1_Fd), press FIRE button.
2. Hold in Position 2 (C2_dn), press FIRE button.
3. Hold in Position 3 (C3_bc), press FIRE button.
4. Hold in Position 4 (C4_UP), press FIRE button.
5. Hold in Position 5 (C5_rF), press FIRE button.
6. Hold in Position 6 (C6_rd), press FIRE button.
7. Hold in Position 7 (C7_rb), press FIRE button.
8. Hold in Position 8 (C8_rU), press FIRE button. Hold in position 9, press FIRE button.
9. Hold in position 9 (C9_UF), press FIRE button.
10. Hold in position 10 (C10_Ur), press FIRE button.
11. Hold in position 11 (C11_Ub), press FIRE button.
12. Hold in position 12 (C12_UL), press FIRE button.
13. If Fail Message appears, repeat steps 1 through 12.
14. If Pass Message appears, the new calibration is saved:
a. Press FIRE or SELCET button return to the measurement screen.
